Nano Zinc Oxide in White Shrimp Aquaculture

ZnoNova Super Zinc

We have one real production trial on white shrimp, run in Fujian over 82 days. Below is what it recorded — including the numbers that do not flatter us — and the dosing ladder that came out of it, which is the part most farms actually want.

The dosing ladder

This is the practical output of the trial and the thing to write down. Ratio is Super Zinc to feed:

Early stageDo not dose
Day 11–301 : 2,500
Day 31–601 : 1,000
Day 61 onward1 : 500

The ladder rises because biomass rises. A fixed ratio through the cycle either overdoses early or underdoses late.

Reading this honestly

What the material is

Food-grade water-dispersible nano zinc oxide with an organic-zinc concentrate. Zinc is a required trace mineral in shrimp nutrition; the argument for a nano-dispersed form is bioavailability at lower inclusion, not a health claim. Regulatory status as a feed additive in your market is your responsibility, and we supply documentation to support it.

Questions buyers ask

Does Super Zinc increase shrimp survival?

We cannot claim that from this data. The trial had no control pond, so the survival figure of 71.08% cannot be attributed to the additive. If survival is your target, run a split-pond trial and we will support it with material and the dosing protocol.

Why publish an FCR of 3.3 when the benchmark is 1.2-1.5?

Because it is what the record says. Farm managers read these numbers for a living and will find it. We would rather be the supplier who published it than the one who was caught omitting it.

What is the dosing ratio?

Nothing early, then 1:2,500 from day 11 to 30, 1:1,000 from day 31 to 60, and 1:500 from day 61. That is Super Zinc to feed by weight.

Can it be used in marine ponds or RAS?

The trial was freshwater earthen pond. Marine and recirculating systems differ in water chemistry and mineral loading, so treat those as a separate evaluation and tell us the system when you enquire.
